So they want to move thousands of Xtians to S.C. and secede from the Union. I think it’s a great idea. It will put them in one place out of my way and I’ll avoid going there at all cost. Looks like the Palmetto State will be the Jesus State. Halleluiah!

Of course, they breed like rabbits, so they'd quickly overpopulate the state and would be living in poverty. They'd probably like that, though. The Christians do love to suffer for their cranky Jehovah.

Ha! That is true.Perhaps we could help accomodate their journey, a la "trail of tears".Then, when they arrived at the end of their pilgrimmage, they would actually have a reason to feel persecuted.

As far as the overpopulation is concerned...I envision the nation's first state-wide trailer park,appropriately titled: "New Jerusalem".

Flesh and Bones_______________“For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can't readily accept the God formula, the big answers don't remain stone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command nor faith a dictum. I am my own god. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.” ~ Charles Bukowski

I don’t quite believe it will be a "hooverville." Overpopulation is an issue but most Xtians are hypocrites. They wouldn’t want to live under Puritan Government with no booze or porn. Most will like the idea at first but as things pan out (if they do) they will see it as to strict. We’ll see who is the most “Christian” when the time comes.

Well, not at first. First it will be all white picket fences and calico dresses with the doilie collars.

Most Christians are Christian in name only. They'd be whatever everyone else was. Those types wouldn't tolerate a land without modern vices. But this Carolina secession seems more geared toward very serious zealots. Zealots seem to be fully capable of maintaining their bland brand of insanity for several generations. Just look at the Amish. And the Taliban. Tomato, Tomahto.

I saw that story on the national news the other night. I don't normally tune it to keep MISinformed, but it was on while I was eating dinner, and well, I was busy eating and not channel surfing. If I picked up the remote I'd have to not be picking up my food and eating it.

They sensationalized it as always. The "voice" as the program was preparing to cut to commercial stated something to the effect of, "Christians wanting to secede from the union!!!" They make it sound like all Hell is breaking loose, when in reality it's a fucking group of families somewhere in South Carolina who are all bible thumpers. The location doesn't surprise me one single bit seeing as how that's where the BoJo's are. Yeah, the BoJo's, remember them? The Bob Jones University where there was a big stink several years ago about them not allowing interracial dating. At first they claimed they were right in God's eyes. Then they changed their policies after the media attacked them relentlessly. At that point, they were "disarming Satan". I'm not to far from the South Carolina border of Georgia. I wouldn't be surprised if next time I drove up there to buy fireworks, the state welcome sign said "WELCOME TO SOUTH CAROLINA, THE RELIGIOUS FRUIT LOOP STATE"

I say someone should send them smallpox laden blankets to keep themselves warm on the journey there.

Hey. What goes: Clip clop clip clop clip clop *BANG!*?
